Treasure County is one of Montana’s smallest by population, located in the eastern part of the state with a county seat at Hysham. The land is extremely rural, dominated by ranching, dry-land farming and open space. Housing stock is limited, and homes tend to be modest town residences or ranch homes on large parcels. Because of the low population, demand and limited infrastructure, home values are very affordable compared to more developed Montana counties. Existing homes might typically range $120K-$250K for modest town homes; ranch properties (with land and outbuildings) might range $250K-$400K+ depending on acreage and improvements. Building a new home (land + build) may cost $250K-$400K+, though remote infrastructure may increase cost. The county is decidedly rural, with few services, businesses or urban amenities; buyers are looking for deep rural lifestyle, acreage and minimal population. Housing typologies: single‐family homes in small town, ranch and farm homes, large land parcels rather than subdivisions.
